09/26/2009 - 22:14 I was really happy to find this website and to see so many names of people that I have sailed with in the past. I had 21 years with Shell and would not have changed it for anything. Although retired now I live on the Isle of Man and I am secretary of the Isle of Man Branch of the Shell Pensioners Association. I would love to hear from anyone who remembers me.
